How Aircraft Loans Work – Navigating the Aircraft Loan Process with Jade

Our specialist aviation finance brokers work with each client to successfully navigate through what may be a complex loan process. We handle all stages of the process from the initial contact. Lenders have varying criteria for approving finance and our brokers know the matrix used by our lenders. With our access to 80+ lenders, we match each client with the most suitable lender.

We assist with completing the application form for either personal or business finance. Lenders will be looking at the creditworthiness of the applicant when assessing the application and making any offer. Good credit applicants are rated at a lower risk and are typically offered the best rates and most workable terms. While achieving the lowest rates is integral to the overall outcome, the loan term can be critical to the repayments and the viability of the aircraft acquisition.

Using the leverage we have with our lenders, our brokers negotiate on behalf of our clients for the lowest rates and most suitable finance terms to meet their requirements. Applicants are required to provide financials and a range of documentation on their personal or business position. These may include tax returns, bank statements, BAS returns and similar documentation on the business. Personal loan applicants are required to provide income details, information on other debts and assets and a range of personal information.

Initial approval of the application may be received within 24 hours. Your Jade broker will then be working with you and our lender to structure the financing to optimise the tax deductions available, suit cash flow and to meet the target set for the return on the investment.

When the financing is finalised, we liaise with our lender and our client’s seller to arrange settlement and delivery of the aircraft. We handle aircraft loans for buyers around Australia, providing convenient and efficient online services to expedite application approvals.

The process is fast, efficient and streamlined, with clients benefiting from our extensive experience in aviation financing and the specialised expertise of our brokers. Applications can be made online or over the phone with one of our experts.

  • Fast, streamlined airplane loans application process.
  • Specialist brokers to handle the entire aviation finance process.
  • Australia-wide services.

Full Portfolio of Types of Aircraft Financing Options Available

As specialists in aviation finance, we provide customers with the full portfolio of loan options for fixed wing and rotary aircraft. The same credit facilities are available for both new and second-hand aircraft, subject to lender acceptance of the asset as suitable collateral.
Our Secured Aircraft Loans is typically the most suitable option for private buyers and provides a straightforward format and competitive rates. The aircraft is used as the collateral for the loan, and we secure fixed low rates, negotiated fixed terms and workable fixed repayments.

Where the aircraft is not accepted or available as collateral, we offer buyers the option of an Unsecured Personal Loan. The interest rates are higher than for secured options, but the flexibility of not having the aircraft committed as collateral, can be extremely attractive to many aviators.

Commercial operators have the choice of Leasing, Chattel Mortgage, Rent-to-Own and Hire Purchase credit facilities. The suitability of each facility will depend on the accounting method used by the operator and the approach to tax and balance sheet.

While Chattel Mortgage and Hire Purchase offer the lowest rates in commercial finance, Leasing provides the flexibility of not having the asset appear in the company balance sheet. Tax deductions are available on all commercial credit facilities and balloon and residuals negotiated to suit ownership cycles and resale value.

New and small aviation operators that do not meet all the standard lender criteria can access our Low Doc and No Doc Aircraft Finance through our specialist non-bank lenders. For a quote on your specific aircraft loan, contact us by phone or online.

  • Aircraft Lease, Chattel Mortgage, Hire Purchase.
  • Secured Airplane Loans for private buyers.
  • No Doc and Low Doc Commercial finance for new operators.
  • Individually sourced and structured aviation financing.

In completing the application form, we emphasise the importance of preparing and providing thorough and detailed documentation. The more information lenders have on the individual or business financial position, the faster the approval and potentially, the better the offer.

We guide applicants through the application process, providing advice on the documentation to provide to ensure the best outcome. Submitting an application with us is on a no obligation basis. When an offer is received, the decision to proceed or not, is totally with the applicant. Submit your application to find out the low rate airplane loan offer we may source for your purchase.
